Loved it! An interesting topic to touch upon about relationship (who we are, how we differ, and what we do to close the gap ...) I like the idea of solving other people's problems lures out the same issues within ourselves. The cast was great. Each character was uniquely molded with their own problems. There was a few hiccups by the Grace character, which was my first time seeing someone making noticeable mistakes on stage for the past 9 months (~ 15 shows probably). But it was no big deal. Great dialog. Great acting of heated conversation at 3 ends of the telephone (I always admire actors for only hearing/seeing what they should hear/see as their characters, and completely shutting out what they shouldn't know.) And, big big plus for the definition of art!Written on Feb 18 2008

It was a very engaging performance. I always enjoy Hollywood Fight Club. The restroom situation is a little dicey, but the theater is quite charming and the performances are always great.Written on Feb 25 2008

The play was well written and very, very funny. All the actors were well cast and very convincing but David Danino must be singled out for the superb job he did; he nailed the role of "clean Gene." I'm still smiling remembering some of his expressions. A production this good deserves a better venue.Written on Feb 18 2008

More Information About Things You Shouldn't Say Past Midnight
Description
<p>A Jewish graduate student, becomes a victim of Coitus interruptus when his blonde mid-Western Gentile girlfriend of six months, Nancy, fires off "Do me, do me, you hooked-nosed Jew," during orgasm. Almost sent into a state of shock by what he hears and interprets as Nancy's repressed anti-Semitism, Ben withdraws and tries to initiate a dialogue with Nancy about not ever really knowing something about someone, but it only leads to Nancy's suggestion that Ben may be gay. </p> <p>In the second bed, Nancy's best friend Grace, a somewhat ditsy advertising copy-writer with some rather kinky inclinations, is not having the hot and heavy sexual encounter she would like with Gene, the tough, but much too sensitive and talkative, professional hit man she has used as her boy-toy for the past week. </p> <p>In the third bed, we find Gene's gay younger brother Mark, who happens to be Grace's therapist. Mark is in bed with his partner of choice, the seventy-ish Mr. Abramson, when their playtime is interrupted by a phone call from Grace. Nancy has decided to visit Grace in the middle of the night to cry on her shoulder and get advice. Grace's advice, abetted by Gene's stream of street smarts psychology, is that Nancy and Ben's problems can be fixed with a three-way conference call that will include Ben from his apartment.</p> <p>Grace and Gene and Mark and Mr. Abramson, while committed to confronting their own highly intimate pursuits, also become immersed in getting Nancy and Ben together again. Think X-rated sitcom.</p>
